SECTION 10 – ROADWAY LIGHTING AND TRAFFIC SIGNALS CONTENTS
.1 Lighting Levels for Standard Roadways, Intersections, and Traffic Circles:
(a) Roadways, bikeways and pedestrian walkways shall be illuminated for nighttime safety and comfort of motorists, cyclists and pedestrians.
(b) Required roadway illuminance levels and uniformity ratios are listed in Table 1 below. Calculations shall be undertaken using the illuminance method in the most current edition of the ANSI/IESNA RP-8 – Roadway Lighting standard practices. Road classifications are described in Section 8.0 – Transportation. (REVISED MAY 2020)
(c) Sidewalks, bike paths and multi-use paths are to be illuminated as indicated in Table 1. If the roadway lighting does not light pedestrian and cycling areas adequately, supplemental lighting poles or additions to the roadway lighting davit (mounted to the shaft or on a separate arm) may be required. (REVISED MAY 2020)
(d) Required sign illuminance levels and uniformity ratios shall be in accordance with the most current edition of the ANSI/IESNA RP-19 – Roadway Sign Lighting.
(e) The term ‘conflict’ refers to areas where vehicle-to-vehicle or vehicle-to-pedestrian conflicts may occur as defined in IESNA RP8. (REVISED MAY 2020)
(f) Illumination levels for intersecting roadways shall be the sum of the minimum averages of each roadway with the lowest minimum uniformity ratio from the intersecting roadways. This higher lighting zone shall be extended to include the conflicts resulting at crosswalks, sidewalks, bike paths, and multi-use paths. Intersections of lanes with other roadway types are exempt from this requirement. (REVISED MAY 2020)
(g) The maintained average horizontal illuminance level, average to minimum uniformity ratios and roadway classification for each roadway shall be noted on the Design Drawings.
(h) Pedestrian Area Classification level shall be as directed by the City or as determined by the Engineer. (REVISED MAY 2020)

(*) Maintained levels shall include a total Light Loss Factor (LLF) of 0.85 as discussed in Table 4.
.2 Lighting Levels for Roundabouts:
(a) Due to the unique geometry of roundabouts, these intersections involve additional lighting requirements and should be designed in accordance with the principles of Transportation Association of Canada Guide for the Design of Roadway Lighting.
(b) Each approach to a roundabout shall be illuminated in accordance with Section 10.01.1 for a distance of 80m from the roundabout.
(c) The area within the intersection shall have a horizontal illuminance level and uniformity in accordance with Section 10.01.1.
(d) Each crosswalk in the roundabout shall have a minimum vertical illuminance level for the direction of on-coming traffic that is equivalent to the minimum horizontal illuminance level for the intersection.

.3 Lighting Levels for Mid-Block Crosswalks:
(a) Mid-block crosswalks can present a higher risk to pedestrians than crosswalks at intersections as drivers may not expect pedestrians at these locations. As such, these crosswalks involve additional lighting requirements and should be designed in accordance with the principles Transportation Association of Canada Guide for the Design of Roadway Lighting.
(b) The area within the crosswalk shall have a horizontal illuminance level and uniformity in accordance with Section 10.01.1.
SECTION 10 – ROADWAY LIGHTING AND TRAFFIC SIGNALS DESIGN CRITERIA

(d) Vertical illuminance may sometimes be more efficiently achieved with lower pole heights. As such, 7.6m poles should be considered for these applications.
.4 Lighting Levels for Cul-De-Sacs:
(a) Due to the geometry of cul-de-sacs, maintaining minimum illuminance levels and uniformity commonly results in overlighting the area and excessive light pollution. Due to the reduced traffic and low travel speeds at cul-de-sacs, the requirements are relaxed at these locations.
(b) Lighting levels for a cul-de-sac shall be considered to be met with a single streetlight pole, with the same luminaire and height as the remainder of the street, placed within 5m of the beginning of the cul-de-sac curve.

In addition maintaining clearances to overhead BC Hydro power lines in accordance with the Canadian Electrical Code, WorkSafeBC, BC Hydro Standards, and the BC Electrical Safety Act shall also govern pole spacing.
(b) Generally, poles shall be arranged in a one sided or staggered spacing based on the road classifications listed in Table 2. In circumstances where overhead BC Hydro power lines are in conflict with streetlight poles, one sided spacings may be considered if the required illumination level and uniformity ratios can be achieved. Alternate pole spacings shall meet the approval of the City Engineer.
(c) Where possible locate poles on property lines to avoid driveway conflicts. (d) Streetlight poles shall be offset as shown on the “Typical Cross Section Standard
Drawings” in Section 8.0 – Transportation. (REVISED MAY 2020) (e) Where the posted travel speed for the roadway exceeds 60km/h, poles should be
placed outside of the Clear Zone.
